@britishlibrary What's the current update on this? Is it possible to order collection items in the reading rooms or is the server still down?

Artist Claire selected 5 key plants from the #raingarden to star as the principal actors in our scene on #WiltonWay – santolina, lemon balm, salvia ‘hot lips’, Erysimum & witch hazel – for their healing properties and pollinator-friendly vibes. Tiny in life but huge on the wall!
